President John F.Kennedy, The Federal Reserve, And Executive Order 11110

On June 4, 1963, a little known attempt was made to strip the Federal Reserve

President John F. Kennedy signed Executive Order No. 11110 that returned to
the U.S. government the power to issue currency, without going through the
Federal Reserve. [much, much more]
